Below is the 3-day 2-night schedule to conquer Nam Kang Ho Tao of readers Hai Le Cao. Choose the right route You can choose 2 routes to climb the top of Nam Kang Ho Tao. If you have good physical strength, experience and like to try difficult roads, you should choose to start in Lai Chau province and return to Lao Cai province. Choosing this route, you will encounter romantic stone streams and primeval ancient forests. The terrain of this direction is suitable for all subjects. Ideal timing Around February-March or September-November is the time for you to conquer this road. Dry weather, less fog will make it easier to determine the direction. You should not trek this route in the rainy season or after a long rain. The mossy cliffs are quite slippery, the streams will become dangerous rushing water. Schedule The first day: 7h: The group moves by car from Sa Pa to Thao A village. The distance is about 90 km. 11h: Delegation to the village, meet the porter, distribute food and drink before departure. Right after that, the group started the journey. The first 1-2 km I found the road easy to go. The terrain is not too steep, enough for us to warm up and catch up with the challenge behind. After 1-2 km, starting to come to the stream, the terrain is gradually complicated, slopes and big rocks appear. After climbing the slope, I encountered the first big rock with a beautiful view. You should check-in here to get the photos you like. Continue going, the main road is still streams and rocks. I met the 2nd and 3rd giant stones in turn. The Nam Kang Ho Tao road has a lot of repetition, but it is not easy to conquer. I am impressed with the 3rd stone because it is located in a high position, with water pouring down, creating a beautiful scene. After crossing 3 rocks, I immediately met a small waterfall with a cool blue lake. The delegation stopped here to swim, play and continue the journey. I see that those who are weak in this bow will have a hard time. Because the terrain is mainly streams and rocky slopes, it requires you to use your calves to jump continuously. You can overcome it by preparing yourself a support stick, which helps to take power from your hands to support your legs. After a long journey, the group finally reached the campsite. I ended the first day with a barbecue served by Mr. porter. Monday: 6h: The group wakes up quickly for personal hygiene and moves to camp 2. The road is mainly steep, but walking in the cool forest and fresh morning air, you will not feel tired. 8:30: Our group went to camp 2 to eat and rest. 10 am: The group continues to depart. The next road must continuously follow the stream. The boulders appear more often. You will have to jump continuously to go through this journey. After a long journey, we will come to the saddle area, which is an area divided on one side to Lai Chau, the other to Lao Cai. Because the place does not have a shack, if you leave your things, you should arrange them neatly to avoid passersby. Our group rested, had lunch here until 14:00 and continued the journey. I find the road to the top lighter because it has reduced the burden of the backpack. The rest of the road is less difficult, the slope is not too high. Near the top, you will pass through the bamboo forest. Gloves, hats or glasses will make you safer. 16h: The group reached the top of Nam Kang Ho Tao. From here, you can zoom out to see the majestic scenery of the mountains. After resting, taking pictures at the top, the group returned to the junction to leave their belongings at 17:30. The way down is always faster and easier. 18:30: Return to the camp, eat, rest, end day 2. The third day : During the trip, I was quite sad because Nam Kang Ho Tao was not as beautiful as I imagined. However, the last day when returning to Lao Cai was the highlight of this whole trip. 6h: The group wakes up, collects luggage. 7:00 am: The group begins to descend the mountain. This is the time when the sun begins to creep through the leaves, peeking at the stream bank. The scene that appeared before my eyes made me bewildered and tried to go slowly to take a closer look. On the journey down the mountain, you will encounter ancient trees of huge size or slopes like challenging conquerors. The sudden drop in altitude from 1,700 m to 1,400 m can take less than an hour for inexperienced people to conquer. 14h: I go to Den Thang board and move by motorbike to Sa Pa to rest and have dinner. 20h: Me and my companion get on the bus back to Hanoi in the night, ending the journey. Trip cost (2 people) – 2-way sleeper bus ticket / 2 people: 880,000 VND (recommended to book round trip ticket will get 40,000 VND discount) – Ticket to the forest: 500,000 VND/2 people (porter is free) – Food: 1,299 million VND/3 people (including porter) – Porter rental: 1.5 million dong/3 days – Rent a motel for porter to Sa Pa to wait for the delegation: 100,000 VND – Car fare from Den Thang village to Sa Pa: 900,000 VND/3 car – Total cost: about 5.2 million VND/2 people

The most appropriate time to conquer the East Pole – Mui Doi is from January to May every year, this time is not yet the rainy season and the sunshine in the Central is not yet harsh. To conquer Double Cape will be difficult if you go by road because you have to cross hills, sand dunes, which requires health … The road to Mui Doi is determined the most difficult in the journey to conquer 4 poles. on the Vietnamese mainland. Before Mui Doi was officially recognized as the easternmost point on the mainland, Mui Dien in Hoa Tam commune (Dong Hoa district, Phu Yen province) held this title. Compared with the road to Mui Doi, Mui Dien is easier to conquer. If you go from Tuy Hoa city, you can go through Ca Pass, Vung Ro port, then follow the big road to Cape Dien. Cape Dien (Phu Yen) with easier access is one of the spots to catch the sunrise on the mainland. When you see the Mui Dai Lanh lighthouse, that’s when the journey to conquer Cape Dien begins. From the lighthouse, go down to the place marked Mui Dien not far.

1. There has been an endless debate in the world of audiophiles as to prefer sweet or rustic sound quality. The people who follow the school of acoustic qualities have sweet, flattering sound, like eating pho for noodles. Prefer sweet noodle soup made by MSG or from bone stew, depending on each person’s taste. Those who like sweet sound quality tell the wood to listen dry and difficult to enter. However, the rustic sound sounds not boring, it is closer to the truthfulness of the sound source, so most of the audio players, after a long time, have finally returned to … carpentry. 2. In architecture, here and there we see patches of walls that are not plastered, or plastered, but are stripped of mortar by the interior workers, leaving carpentry bricks to look rough, nostalgic and vivid. Recently, office buildings tend not to flatten ceilings but expose the entire electrical system, air conditioning, fire …, then spray dark paint. The space above the head so that it looks confusing, messy turns out to have depth, not boring, not tedious. In interior design there is a whole school of rudeness. Many materials, including wood, do not need to be too elaborate to be processed, but just leave it as it is, with the wooden eyes, the wooden shell, the core being deepened. Living next to such objects has a feeling of closeness to nature. 3. In cuisine, more and more people are aiming for purity, that is, to maximize the “rusticness” of the ingredients without letting spices interfere too much. Western grilled snakehead fish is a popular dish of garden drinkers and farmers. But now it becomes a “unique” dish of luxury restaurants because more and more people see the sweetness, the aroma of the attractive fish meat, to capture the taste, there is no substitute. There are many spicy flavors in this world, but gourmets still like the spicy taste of ca cuong. And it must be the spicy taste of the raw ca cuong, but the essential oil is also not good. Previously, people told each other that coffee, when roasting, had to give this or that to make it strong. I don’t know what this is about, but now addicts just go out and get acquainted, see the coffee beans, touch the beans, tell me to grind this kind, the roasted type, the butter. It is no coincidence that the rustic coffee philosophy of Starbuck is famous all over the world. 4. In terms of color, if you know how to mix deep tones – rustic color, it will be very luxurious! This is the luxury of the radio people, not the emerging people who always like brilliantly in crowded places. Gold is the symbolic color of kings and supremacy. In the scene of dazzling bright colors, it is easy to be confused and overwhelmed. On the contrary, the rustic color tone – the deep color is easy to approach and easily sympathetic. 5. I’m not familiar with it, but it seems that there are content in beauty contests that force contestants to have their bare faces for the judges to comment on. After all, in life, we won’t be able to put on makeup forever, sometimes the make-up disappears, leaving only a bare face. Carpentry is the truth. Carpentry but still beautiful and precious. 6. Even in the @ era, I still see the presence of “carpentry”. Gone are the days when the flashy interface flashed red, green, and yellow. Now is the time for the user-friendly interfaces, the softwares bring simplicity and convenience to users. 7. In communication, behavior, carpentry often means sincerity. Rustic displays mutual understanding beyond words and etiquette. Of course, carpentry is not messy, permissive, or indulgent. I have seen many noisy conversations where one side (or both sides) is fighting to tell cliché stories, talking out of the way. Looks like they all tried to speak to avoid the silence. Are they afraid of voiceless gaps? Or maybe they think it’s tedious to say nothing? Others try to prove their superiors or superior thinking abilities, so they must be careful, considerate, and thoughtful so that every sentence that comes out must be a statement, elaborate, concise and general. Communication suddenly became a listening-comprehension contest and the battle to win the heart made the atmosphere heavy, everyone was tired and awkward. I think people who understand each other can be honest. The rest must be scheduled, experienced and tolerant in order to have a … rustic, regardless of whether the opposite person is bright or cowardly, familiar or strange. Then the meeting will not need makeup by trying to mold smiles, sentences; Or try to make a thunderclap propaganda tendon to prove me here. No need, just look at each other to understand, otherwise, just a few sentences very rustic, sincere. /.

Impressive export growth
Since the EVFTA officially took effect (August 1, 2020), Vietnam’s export turnover to the EU market has achieved impressive results. According to statistics of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, by the end of December 2020, Vietnam’s export turnover to the EU market reached 15.62 billion USD, up 3.8% over the same period in 2019; the average export value per month is about 3.12 billion USD / month. Loading and unloading area for export at Dinh Vu port, Hai Phong. Photo: Victory In the first 2 months of 2021, Vietnam’s exports to the EU reached US $ 6.3 billion, an increase of 22.7% over the same period last year. Although the EU is a difficult market, Vietnamese enterprises quickly approached and took advantage of EVFTA’s opportunities, resulting in a trade surplus in the first 2 months of the year with the EU market being 4 billion USD, up 36.3% over the same period. period 2020. The items with the highest export growth to the EU include: Rubber products; computers, electronic products and components; iron and Steel; seafood, vegetables, rice … For example, rice, after EVFTA officially came into effect, some rice exporting enterprises signed fragrant rice export orders with higher value to the EU, even having shipments for the first time. are exported for over 1,000 USD / ton. This has spread a positive signal to Vietnam’s rice export situation in both volume and price. Along with rice, a series of shipments exported to the EU market have enjoyed 0% tax rate as committed in EVFTA such as passion fruit, tiger shrimp, pomelo, dragon fruit, suitcase, bag, shoes … seafood products have recorded significant export growth to the EU thanks to the impact of EVFTA earlier this year. Seafood export value in the first 2 months of 2021 reached USD 1.01 billion, an increase of 0.7% over the same period in 2020.
The Director of the Export and Import Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade) Tran Thanh Hai said that the growth figures of exports to the EU are evidences for the efficient exploitation of markets under EVFTA by enterprises. This is also a remarkable result of the industry and trade in promoting propaganda about EVFTA and guiding businesses to take advantage of incentives through the following channels: Free Trade Agreement (FTA Portal), internet , Facebook… In addition, the foreign trade system has captured market information and arising issues affecting Vietnam’s exports such as changes in importing countries’ policies, technical barriers, timely timely information for ministries, branches, associations and businesses to respond promptly.
Adhere to high standards of “rules of the game”
Experts say that EVFTA’s challenges have been creating reasonable pressure for Vietnamese enterprises to adjust and change their production methods and improve their competitiveness. In fact, over the past time, many businesses have made efforts to change, have preparedness, invest in new equipment to process and produce products in accordance with the requirements of the EU market.
For agricultural products, up to now, Vietnam has 39 sets of geographical indications that are recognized for protection in the EU without going through registration procedures, providing great opportunities for businesses and farmers in Vietnam. . This not only ensures the benefits for Vietnamese agricultural products, which have been in this market for a long time, but also opens up opportunities for many new agricultural products to access the market. In addition, many Vietnamese enterprises have the capacity to meet the requirements of EU importers for agricultural products and foodstuffs when more than 6,335 hectares of fruit have been applied VietGAP / GlobalGAP and have been issued with regional codes. Planting meets export standards; more than 5,000 hectares of aquaculture farms were recognized to apply VietGAP / GlobalGAP; 100% of export basa fish farms were issued with a code of origin; 100% of fishing boats commit to say no to illegal fishing …
For the textile and garment industry, enterprises have focused on new investment in yarn production – fabric weaving accounts for a high rate of localization. Many raw material production areas have been opened with an exceptionally large scale, including domestic and foreign enterprises such as: Thien Nam Yarn, Yarn – Nam Dinh Fabrics, Phu Bai Yarn, Yarn – Textile 8/3, Yarn Texhong … Besides, businesses also gradually shifted to import raw materials to markets with trade agreements with the EU, meeting the requirements of cumulative rules of origin that EVFTA offers such as Korea or Japan.
In other industries, businesses are also actively exploring to meet the conditions of origin certification (C / O) to take advantage of incentives and are constantly improving the quality of products and designs. , label packaging as well as focus on information traceability to develop products in the EU market right after EVFTA comes into effect.
Quality is the decisive factor
According to a survey by the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), in fact, not many businesses can catch up with the standards of this world’s most difficult market. Therefore, in the long term, businesses that want to access this market are forced to continue to change to meet the standards that the EU has specified. “Instead of trying to increase output and compete on prices, Vietnamese businesses need to improve their ability to meet market standards through technology investment, product quality control and improvement; upgrade the foundation of competitiveness in terms of business model, strategy, management, human resources, quality of goods and services according to EU standards ”- VCCI Chairman Vu Tien Loc recommended.
Offering recommendations for exporting enterprises, economist Nguyen Tri Hieu said that businesses must constantly improve product quality. Because European consumers do not care much about the price of the product, but focus on the quality of the product. In particular, the export consignments must ensure uniform quality, if not well maintained, enterprises will only step into the initial EU market, but it is difficult to compete and dominate this market in the long term. . “The tariff incentive is only an advantage for Vietnam to open the door to the EU, but it is difficult to keep market share in this difficult market if EU consumers do not see a quality advantage. Import tax reduction under EVFTA is not as important as whether Vietnamese products brought to the EU can be sold or not ”- Dr. Nguyen Tri Hieu emphasized.
Many experts and managers also believe that, to realize the great opportunities that EVFTA brings, businesses need to firmly, fully and accurately grasp the commitments in EVFTA related to the field and business activities. From that, they have the foundation, the basis for action, prepare resources, develop and implement business plans to exploit EVFTA’s advantages most effectively. According to the forecast of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in 2021, Vietnam’s exports to the EU will grow positively in the context that the Covid-19 epidemic is expected to be better controlled, and measures to limit gradually. relax and EU economy is likely to gradually recover. This will be an important foundation for Vietnamese enterprises to take advantage of commitments in EVFTA more effectively and gradually dominate the EU market. “In order to protect Vietnam’s export industries from the risks of lawsuits against evasion of trade remedies, the Ministry of Industry and Trade continues to take measures against origin fraud. , enhancing post-inspection; proactively coordinating with competent agencies of the importing country in case verification of origin is required in order to detect and strictly handle cases of counterfeiting the origin of Vietnamese goods. ” – Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Quoc Khanh “In the coming time, Vietnamese enterprises must learn and grasp information about the EU market, from consumer tastes to regulations and standards of rules of origin, food safety and hygiene. … in order to improve the quality of goods, conquer the market. In addition, build sustainable chains from production to consumption to easily apply technology to production to speed up the quantity. , export product quality control. ” – Chairman of Vietnam Association of Small and Medium Enterprises (VINASME) Nguyen Van Than

This article’s Professor and Doctor of Dermatology Duong Hy Xuyen (China) talk about the history of leprosy and the miracles that humans have fought to overcome this evil disease.

When you hear the word “leprosy”, what comes to mind first?

“Phong Village” is forgotten

Without a doubt, most people have this idea first in mind.

This is a somewhat frightening and remote topic, this bizarre disease has been too distant for us in the 21st century, far enough away to be forgotten.

Fifty years ago, hundreds of thousands of shunned leprosy people were still living in China, now it is hard to see them. The miserable patients are inherently seen as symbols of sin: leprosy and death are equated.

Leprosy is a chronic bacterial illness that can be written as leprosy, but it has nothing to do with madness. Perhaps to avoid such misunderstandings, this disease is often referred to as “leprosy”.

But everyone’s association with it is not only madness, but also represents bright red eyes, short fingers, festering wounds, amputated feet, distorted appearance and even death. miserable.

For thousands of years, leprosy has been considered an evil disease, even a symbol of evil, and under the tragic fate of leprosy patients, they continue to be tortured both physically and mentally, This is beyond our imagination.

In the old era, when medical technology was limited, medical equipment was scarce, leprosy was basically determined to be incurable since it had regionally contagious properties, the only way to Control of fluid growth is isolating the patient.

So, on the mountain, on an isolated island, a group of leprosy villages were built so that the sick lived there. There is no specific medicine or vaccine, and untreated self-resisting patients will continue to develop ulcers and disfigurement until they become paralyzed or even die.

Over time, people misunderstood, dispelled, and feared it, and the “scary” Phong was now a trademark of terror.

The end of the leprosy era

The leprosy history is long, stretching for 1400 years, like an endless nightmare.

It was not until 1874 that the Norwegian physician Hansen (GerhardH.A.Hansen) broke the darkness that he discovered the culprit – the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae.

Symptoms caused by Mycobacterium leprosy bacteria are manifested in the skin, peripheral nerves, mucosa of the upper respiratory tract and eyes, if not treated promptly can lead to blindness or deformity, disability and other consequences.

In other words, once leprosy is found, the disability rate will be very high. However, if the disability is detected early and treated promptly, the disability can be cured.

In current medical conditions, leprosy is already an easy-to-diagnose and treatable disease, currently in clinical use mainly a combination of many drugs and chemotherapy treatments, which can cure leprosy. Within 6-24 months, the contagiousness of the disease may disappear after a week of taking the drug.

Usually, if the patient unfortunately gets the disease, the patient does not need to have negative psychology and bewildered when treating this disease, on the one hand it will not be inherited, on the other hand, the survival rate of bacteria in vitro is low.

Generally, they can be destroyed by disinfection, most people have natural immunity (according to survey statistics with 90% or more), extremely low incidence, when infected. Nor does it need isolation, just treatment.

Darkness has long passed, the era when leprosy is “incurable disease” has been shortened by history. At present, there are basically few new cases, there is no so-called “leprosy village”, only more than 3,000 elderly people in community rehabilitation villages have survived the disease, but have also incapable of working, still facing sequelae.

Leprosy is not terrible

Although leprosy is rare, but because it is very similar to the symptoms of other diseases, it is possible to misdiagnose or omit the disease, so the prevention and treatment cannot be relaxed.

On the other hand, leprosy is a disease with a dark history. Even modern people will still have a lack of sympathy towards patients with fear of leprosy, which has become the biggest obstacle to leprosy prevention today.

So sometimes, it is not the terminal illness, but the hearts of people. Of course, society is not without action.

The last Sunday of January every year is “World leprosy Day”, many countries will organize many activities on this day to mobilize social forces to help leprosy patients overcome difficulties in their life. live and work to eliminate prejudice and discrimination.

There are also many volunteers entering the rehabilitation village, sharing, chatting, even eating, living together, giving care, warm care and making their best contributions. can.

The original purpose of writing this article was to hope everyone to have a correct understanding of leprosy, not to be bound by inherent impressions of the past. Leprosy is not as formidable and frightening as we can imagine. It can be seen from a scientific perspective, it will reduce the superficial evaluation and alienate the patient.
